Gold Forecast to Hit $1500 During 2011 / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: GoldCore
Concerns that the US economy is sliding back into recession has led to equities internationally coming under pressure and further flows into safe-haven assets. Gold and silver have consolidated from last week's gains and remain near closing levels from yesterday and last week. The yen - a preferred carry trade at times of financial stress - rose back to a 15-year high against the dollar as doubts remain about Japan's attempt to weaken the currency. Interestingly, despite the yen's recent strength, gold remains near multiyear record highs in the Japanese currency (see chart).

Silver Producers Enter Profitable Phase / Commodities / Gold & Silver Stocks
By: Sean_Rakhimov
The latest quarterly (Q2, ended June 30, 2010) results from a number of silver producers confirm that they are now entering a phase of sustainable profits. We will look at several companies and try to make sense of the numbers as well as make an EPS projection for the calendar year 2010. This particular selection of companies was not meant to be a comprehensive overview of the entire group of silver producers, yet our intention was to provide a meaningful representation of it. Frankly, these companies are doing better than most of the rest of the group in terms of absolute earnings and comparative rate of growth versus prior years. Notable omissions include Fresnillo (LSE: FRES), Hochschild Mining (LSE: HOC) and Polymetal (LSE: PMTL) mainly due to time constraints and access to data. Companies in the table below are listed in alphabetical order.

Red Books And Yellowcake - The Permanent Quest For Uranium / Commodities / Uranium
By: Andrew_McKillop
The nuclear industry, both military and civil has been short of uranium since the start. Enrico Fermi's very first experimental plutonium brewing Manhattan Project reactor was built under a New York City football stadium in 1941, to produce radioactive explosives for the USA's first atom bomb. This tiny reactor of a few kiloWatts power contained a few dozen kilograms of enriched uranium and produced only milligrams of plutonium, which was feverishly gathered and stored.

Silver Up 6% Last Week - Gold-Silver Ratio at 65 Sees Value Buyers Accumulating Silver / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: GoldCore
Markets nervously await data this week including the important monthly jobs number which will likely again underline the risks of a double dip recession. While Asian shares advanced, European shares (London closed for a public holiday) have been more tentative this morning and the US futures are marginally positive. Currencies markets have not seen much movement but yen is stronger again today despite concerns that the government action will not be able to control currency price movements.

By: Lorimer_Wilson

So said Ronald-Peter Stöferle in a 71 page report* on gold he recently released.

Stöferle went on to say:

Silver Stages a Bullish Breakout / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: Clive_Maund
After looking extremely vulnerable for weeks, silver staged an upside breakout last week that has taken the price away from the danger zone and also signaled a probable breakout to new highs that, should it occur after such a prolonged standoff, can be expected to lead to a powerful uptrend that takes the price to a target area in the high $20’s.

Gold Within Striking Distance of Hitting New Highs / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: Clive_Maund
In the last update we were looking for gold to turn lower, it did turn lower and dropped quite heavily back to its 200-day moving average. However, it has risen all the way back up again and is now within striking distance of breaking out to new highs.

Gold Charts Don't Match Bullish Expectations of Commentators / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: Merv_Burak
Too much verbal euphoria, not enough trading euphoria. As an old underground gold miner from long ago I remain somewhat of a gold bug BUT looking at the charts one must be very, very cautious here. The futures trading activity just doesn’t seems to match the expectations of many commentators at this point.

The Push for a Phony Gold Standard / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: Michael_S_Rozeff
At Davos in January of this year at a G20 meeting, President Sarkozy of France called for a new global reserve currency. At the 2009 meeting, Russian President Medvedev suggested a new reserve currency to replace the dollar. A Chinese central bank governor has supported a similar idea. The United Nations Conference on Trade and Development wants to replace the dollar.

Investing in Gold, Finding Comfort in the Economic Downturn / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: Richard_Daughty
Most of the time, I am so freaked out that I spend most of the day in the Mogambo Bunker Of Paralyzing Fear (MBOPF), scared out of my mind at catastrophic ramifications of the economic stupidities that are being foisted upon us, like, for instance, increasing taxes in a recession! Gaaahhhhhh!

Gold Bullion Likely To Pullback Then Rocket Higher / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2010
By: David_Banister
Back in latter June I forecasted a big top in Gold, mostly due to the 5 wave structures up from the October 2008 lows to June highs, and the 5 waves up from February lows to June highs converging. We then dropped from 1243 at the time of the forecast to $1155, which was one of my potential “A wave down” rally pivots. I expected a counter-trend rally or “B” wave up to 1212-1225. So, all of that worked out pretty well, until we hit $1238. Now, $1238 is a 78% Fibonacci re-tracement of the drop from $1265 to $1155. Normally, a re-tracement in a weaker market or sector is capped at 61.8% or 50%.Read full article... Read full article...
